Another example of illegals simply “seeking a better life.”
Quote:
According to Montgomery County, Maryland’s Chief of Police J. Thomas Manger, his jurisdiction is experiencing an increase in gang violence, particularly from Hispanic gangs like MS-13 and the Latin Kings. A great majority of these gang members are illegal aliens, as detailed in our recent Center for Immigration Studies report, “Taking Back the Streets.”
Because Maryland is one of the most pro-illegal immigration states in the country, Virginia’s immigrant gangs have naturally begun relocating there. Maryland’s sanctuary cities, taxpayer-subsidized day labor centers, support for non-citizen voting, and lax drivers license laws are a magnet for illegal immigration and immigrant gangs.
Chief Manger reports that incidences of murder, rape, assault, burglary, and robbery increased in Maryland in 2008, much of it attributable to gangs. In fact, the FBI recently reported that gangs are responsible for up to 80 percent of crime in the United States. ” It seems immigrant gangs are spreading the word that Maryland is a safe haven.
